We Say

Tessa Metcalfe transformed
her fascination with London’s pigeons and her passion for taxidermy into
beautiful, statement jewelry. Tessa strives to find “beauty in
the gutter” and creates silver and gemstone jewelry using pigeons’ claws (don’t
worry, all of the birds died naturally). Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's
“The Ugly Duckling,” Tessa makes the banal beautiful.
